    Chicken Fingers (3 Pieces)
    Joe H.

    This place is alright for me. I wouldn't mind eating it if everyone in my group wants to eat it but I would also not go out of my way for some either. I am not a big fan of Hawaiian buns. I just do not enjoy plain buns or breads that are have too much sweetness for no reason. So whenever I do come here, I just get the chicken fingers and it is one of those styles that are super savory and batter heavy. If you like that, you will love this place. I think it's alright. This place shares the space with Rachel's Ginger Beer and the service is just alright too.

    Chicken Fingers (3 Pieces), Fried Chicken Drumsticks (3 Pieces), Mac & Kimcheese, Cucumber & Wakame Poké
    Arielle M.

    TLDR: chicken was moist but I didn't like the flavor of the chicken or the pickled daikon. Kimchi Mac didn't have any kimchi in (hence the kimcheese naming) and the cucumber poké was hit or miss depending on the bite. Brought this home as a late night snack and while it was filling, the flavors didn't scratch that itch for me. The chicken has a Smokey undertone of spice. We tried the honey mustard (strong mustard flavor), the BBQ (favorite) and the galbi (friends said it was salty, I didn't mind it). The pickled daikon was sour but not in the bright crisp way that I was hoping. Honestly the Mac and kimcheese tasted like regular Mac w gochujang in it. Fries were okay; they said seasoned but honestly they just tasted like salted fries in my opinion. Besides the food, service was quick and the place is in the same room as Rachel's Ginger beer so my partner and I grabbed a drink while waiting. There is both standing and sitting room, and it wasn't busy on a Tuesday night. Overall ambiance is good for groups - a casual setting.

    2 orders of Chicken tenders (MEDIUM spicy) with side of fries and side of Potato Mac Salad

    I don't know what happened but this place isn't what it used to be. Went for dinner and my husband and I were very disappointed. We walked right up to the window. There were only a few people there eating when we got there. Least busy I've ever seen. As we were ordering I noticed a bunch of tenders sitting out in the kitchen. They told us it was going to be about 10 min. When it took at least 15 minutes for our tendies to come out, I was relieved to be getting freshly fried chicken and NOT the chicken that was sitting out (for who knows how long?!) But when I bit into the chicken it was apparent that it was not fresh off of the fryer. It was warm at best. The spiciness level wasn't hot. Typically the medium hot is still pretty spicy. Not sure what is going on here, but definitely going downhill. The quality and the taste is not what it used to be. Sadly I won't be returning. There are far superior hot chicken restaurants in Seattle. Don't waste your time at this one.

    Crispy, crunchy, hot and juicy drumstick. The abundance of paprika does give it a slightly burnt flavor though.

    Ok, but not great. Like most Seattle spots that get a lot of press. It's hard to live up to the hype. I ordered the three drumsticks. The batter is heavy on the paprika, and hence kind of has an almost burnt flavor. The meat itself didn't have much flavor. I don't think it was brined or marinated. They rely on your choice of spiciness in the batter for all the flavor. They actually messed up my order and gave me chicken tenders instead of drumsticks. I returned after standing in line next door at Starbuck's for one of their iced refreshing drinks. They were quite apologetic and a little bit embarassed I think at getting my order wrong. The ticket on my bag was correct. But the contents were not. They made it right immediately. They get props for that. So here's a tip...order your drinks before you make your food order. Stand in line at Starbuck's next door. Or stand in line at Rachel's Ginger Beer (the same space as Ma'ono). If you have your drinks ahead of time, your chicken won't get cold and soggy. You can dig right in to hot and crispy chicken. The order mess-up kind of worked in my favor in that regard. oh so yeah...crispy. They got that part right on the chicken. Very crispy. Very crunchy. But honestly, flavor was underwhelming. For a little less money I can get my chicken at Jollibee and be totally satisfied. That's not a dig or insult toward Ma'ono, it's just Jollibee is really tasty and I don't have stand in a separte line for drinks and another line for food.

    Delicious fried chicken in University Village!! This kind of unassuming chicken joint is located inside of Rachel's Ginger Beer. Order at the little window in the back corner of the restaurant. They have a concise menu of fried chicken in its many forms with a customizable spice level. The space is pretty small, but we were able to snag a table on a weeknight. Grab a ginger beer or a mule from the bar while you wait! The food came out hot and quick on a weeknight. The fried chicken sandwich and chicken tenders with ranch were juicy, spicy, and so delicious! I have never had a combo potato and mac salad before, and I thoroughly enjoyed!

    The chicken was crispy and delicious. Seems like a solid place to get your fried chicken fix. The flavor isn't my favorite but it did have a bit of spicy kick to it which I liked!

    Ma'ono is like stepping into a time machine of flavor, with fried chicken stealing the show like it's the '90s all over again. The place is quite small but being inside Rachel's Ginger Beer feels like its always packed. We started with some French Fries, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Try them with the honey mustard dipping sauce. So so good. Now, onto the star of the show--the Chicken Sandwich. We went for the Hot Hot Hot heat level. Massive, crunchy fried chicken, nestled in soft buns and complete with a side of crispy lettuce and sauce. I felt my sweat glands activate but in a good way. The true star of the show was the chicken fingers. We got that "Hot". More jalapeno heat but perfect for the golden, crispy chicken fingers. I could eat this endlessly. Ma'ono is like a blast from the past in all the best ways. Whether you're down for a quick bite or a full-on feast, Ma'ono's got the flavor to take you back in time. And do grab some RGB to cool you down. Might seem a bit expensive but worth the experience, the flavor and the wonderful memories!

    One of the best fried chicken sandwiches in Seattle. The chicken is perfect and fresh everytime at both locations. The fries all always great too. The mac could be a bit more creamy but it doesn't take away from the sandwiches! Goes perfectly with Rachel's ginger beer :)

    A reliable solid eat in U Village! Chicken is juicy & of nice size, and has a good amount of sauce / pickles / extras to add to the flavor. I appreciate that you can order in advance and pick up easily on a shelf inside the store front. Also has a large amount of seating with sharing space with Rachel's Ginger Beer, and has a really nice set-up of indoor seating that feels like you're outside (large window-doors that stay open on nice days that let in a great breeze). My go-to when I'm hungry and shopping in U-Village!

    Fried Chicken Sandwich & Mac and Cheese

    overall, i had high hopes for this place and while i was met with very friendly and helpful staff i had a few things to note. for the fried chicken sandwich, i found the meat to be a bit dense and therefore dry, perhaps not the right term for it, but i did find myself wishing that it was a bit more crispy and juicy. i did order almost the hottest level and was fairly warned that the hottest level was a no-refunds extreme heat experience-- so shying away from that i went one level down and found that the spice level was not even enough to prick my tongue (this is subjective as i would say i'm 8/10 good with spice and i enjoy somewhat spicy foods) i found the price to also be a bit high for what i got, even though the size of the burger's patty was fair, i still would consider it a touch expensive at $14 at the time (when a few blocks away you can get a better chicken sandwhich over at burger & kabob hut in udistrict in my humble opinion for $8) however, i do think that the flavors of the burger were present and the exterior was well seasoned and with that said, i do genuinely think that this type of fried chicken sandwich may suit some people's tastes as the spot has to be highly rated for a reason. speaking to the mac, i came here primarily because i was craving good mac n cheese in the area and was recommended this spot. overall, i did find the mac to be good and at a reasonable price! it was seasoned well and had a unique flavor. it tasted quite good and the touch of acidity from the kimchi added a nice depth of flavor to the mac and cheese. definitely a highlight of my meal and at a reasonable price for the portion size! finally, not at all a fault of the restaurants, but this spot is tucked away in the right half of an establishment that's shared with "rachel's ginger beer", honestly, i was a little confused where to line up when walking in and seating is a bit limited because the seats for rachel's ginger beer are typically reserved and the spot stays decently packed. i walked down to the shake shack to enjoy my meal in a nice air conditioned spot LOL. overall, i feel like i was a bit harsh with my review, but my takeaway is genuinely just that i wasn't blown away by the chicken sandwhich in terms of texture or spice level, and a lot of that could have been me setting my expectations too high. the mac however was excellent and definitely deserves a try! great seasoning and value there. overall: 7.25/10 taste (burger): 6/10 taste (mac): 9/10 price (burger): 7/10 price (mac): 9.5/10 going to round down to 3 stars for now, but i'm happy to give this place another shot, i had a pleasant experience overall with ordering, the wait time despite the crowd, and the presentation of my food. definitely would come back for the mac and to try the max spice level on the chicken sandwhich -- or perhaps to try their chicken and other menu items outside of the sandwich format :)

    The food here was tasty and came out pretty quickly. It was also reasonably priced. They do have a few vegetarian options too, which was nice. They also have Rachel's Ginger Beer too, which was good for options. The service was friendly and speedy and the ambiance was modern and relaxing.

    YUMM! Get the chicken tenders or the legs. It's so much more food than the sandwich, but cheaper! I get medium spice which is the perfect amount in my opinion! I also chose ranch - the other two dressings are good but they overwhelm the spices on the chicken. Skip the sides - they're overpriced and not that good. They share a store with Rachel's Ginger Beer. which happens to be the perfect pairing for fried chicken. The inside is cute and perfect to eat with friends.

    Ma'ono is always a solid, good portioned choice in U village that has quick service and good vibes. I ordered the BBQ pulled chicken sandwich because I wasn't craving fried chicken, and was really surprised at how juicy the chicken was and the BBQ sauce had fantastic flavor. I would HIGHLY recommend trying this underrated menu item. The fried chicken sandwich was very solid and a great higher-end choice over other options in the area. The mac salad was pretty standard.

I hope that the area comes alive in the future years, that should help. Here's the issue though, this is the slowest spot ever. I've waited 30 minutes for fries - FRIES. I don't mind waiting for food, but it should remain reasonable. There were only two or three people working, and one man did tell us this, but I need to be honest - this was on Super Bowl Sunday. No one was able to get anyone a beer from the tap for 40 minutes, the food took forever and it appeared that online orders were being prioritized (which makes sense, you make as you get orders coming in, but that puts your in person customers in an odd and sometimes frustrating position). To be honest, I probably wouldn't have minded as much if I just had some fries to snack on. I didn't mind as much this one time because I was just happy to find a place to watch the Super Bowl Half Time show, but other days, it's a little hard to look past. I wish this business the best, I live too close to not hope for its improvement! Looking forward to updating my review. At the end of the day, if you're hungry, it's late, this is your spot.

The musubi seems to be dipped in a small amount of soy sauce, although not enough to cover the entire rice surface. The additional sodium isn't really needed in the first place due to the salty and meaty kick the spam on top gives the handheld snack. It's a classic combination for a good reason!

It's a little sweet, a bit peppery, and certainly very creamy. There's a bit of julienned carrot included that isn't particularly crunchy, being soaked in the mayo sauce. The macaroni itself isn't mushy or overcooked, so it still has some texture. (4/5) I don't usually expect much out of food court restaurants, but Aloha Plates definitely surprised me with their quality. It seems like a solid option for Hawaiian.

Perhaps the Lao Burger served there wasn't as juicy and succulent, with perfectly crisp smashed patties as I recalled? Or perhaps Taurus Ox just serves a completely inferior version. I revisited for a Friday late dinner to reach the bottom of things. This was at around 8PM and the place was surprisingly busy, with a fully running kitchen and almost all seats taken. It's a pretty small restaurant to begin with, but since the food comes fast, people don't typically stay too long. By the time our food arrived, a table had cleared up for us. Lao Burger ($18) - This Lao Burger is just as good as my first visit. Absolutely perfectly fried smash patties, completely with lacy, crispy edges that provide texture and an intense caramelized meaty flavor. I've already described the burger in detail in my previous review - what I can say on this visit is that the burger is basically identical, indicating that Ox Burger is consistent with cook and construction. The burger as a whole has the perfect moisture level with plenty of unique funky, umami-full flavors that make each bite a delight. As with my previous review, two things come to mind that detract just a tiny bit from my full enjoyment. Firstly, the burger as a whole is a bit salty for my tastes, necessitating several trips to refill my cup of water Secondly, the piece of sliced pork belly included is kind of vestigial. It seems to be only there to add additional salt, because neither the flavor nor texture are very apparent while eating. (5/5) Deluxe ($15) - This burger is somehow way messier than the Lao to eat. Upon lifting it up, a mess of watery mustard/mayo mix drips onto the plate. I think it might be from the extra moisture in the tomatoes and lettuce. And yet, somehow the bun isn't soggy at all. This burger is otherwise excellent, combing the same picture perfect smash patties as in the Lao, with the classic fixings - American cheese, bacon, pickles, and plenty of veggie mix. (5/5) I'm glad I gave the Lao Burger another chance. It's now one of my favorite burgers in the city. I'll definitely be coming back to Ox Burger for more. The progenitor, Taurus Ox, remains on my not recommended list though! Bathrooms - Single unisex room.

    I was excited to walk down here with visiting family because I'd been eyeing the spot for a long…read moretime. It's the sister of Taurus Ox, and the Laotion twist of these burgers. The service was very typical of the neighborhood--quick and not friendly, but not quite unfriendly. It's really easy to tap pay and get yourself waters, utensils, napkins, etc while you wait for your food. It is pretty small inside, but they've got a great little wooden patio with picnic tables and shade. We opted to sit out here, despite being pestered by wasps. The food was great for all adults involved. Portions of fries are generous and delicious, and come with fancy sauces (none of which appealed to me, but were appreciated by my family). The burgers are really inventive, so we all wanted to try the Lao. It's delicious. I did balk at $18 for just the burger, which is a smash patty (less beef) and I took the cheese, Mayo, and cilantro off. Eighteen dollars! No side, no drink. I might just be living in the past I guess It's really hard to order for kids here, imo. Even my non-picky kid was not about it and the toddler wouldn't try it. Thank goodness for fries, eh? They've got gluten free buns for no upcharge.
